No man can know what the future will look like, but we're willing to go out on a limb and say that 1) there will still be advertising and 2) it will be even more annoying than it is now.

We asked you to show us what the future of annoying ads would look like via photoshop, and offered $50 to the winner. That winner is below, but first, the runners-up:

Some of the recent contests have sucked, with few submissions being actually funny. Thanks for raising the bar back up, people. Lots of good ones on this list.

Note on number 1, in a bar near where i work, in the toilets they have adverts up advertising penis enlargement and viagra. The cheeky fuckers.
